Description
philodendron ushanum Philodendron balaoanumThis is a massive, vigorous climbing Aroid native to the tropical rainforests of Ecuador and Colombia. It is known for its very large, thick, heart shaped, deep green leaves. A key feature is the rusty red color of the petioles, and it requires a sturdy moss pole for support. Light: Requires bright, indirect light to sustain its potential for massive leaf growth. Low light will result in smaller leaves and slower growth. Avoid direct sun. Temperature:
This is a massive, vigorous climbing Aroid native to the tropical rainforests of Ecuador and Colombia. It is known for its very large, thick, heart-shaped, deep green leaves. A key feature is the rusty red color of the petioles, and it requires a sturdy moss pole for support.
- Light: Requires bright, indirect light to sustain its potential for massive leaf growth. Low light will result in smaller leaves and slower growth. Avoid direct sun.
- Temperature: Thrives in warm, tropical conditions, ideally in the range of 65-85°F (18-29°C). It must be protected from cold and temperatures dropping below 60°F (16°C).
- Humidity: High humidity is essential, with 60% or higher being needed to encourage the leaves to grow to their maximum potential size. Use a humidifier or other methods to increase ambient moisture.
- Watering: Water thoroughly, allowing the top 1 inch (2.5 cm) of the soil to dry out between applications. Due to its size, it requires consistent moisture but must be planted in a chunky, well-draining mix to prevent soggy roots.
Additional Notes
This plant is highly valued for its striking, massive leaves and robust climbing habit. Juvenile plants have smaller, more oval leaves but quickly grow larger with adequate support. The plant is considered toxic if ingested.

Smells good, covers well, it does leave a white sheen, I don’t need to reapply.
Style: SPF 50, Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I use this just once on my face in the morning, apply makeup over it, and I haven’t burned yet! Been using it for two years now. Unfortunate thing is that my face is not tan at all because it doesn’t allow any rays. LOL So I my makeup has to match the rest of my body… I stay under an umbrella at the beach for about half of the time that I’m there. Otherwise I am out in the sun. And I do not reapply this. I am in the sun between the hours of 9 and 1 PM and I’m in and out of the shade and sun half of the time. Still no burning. Actually I don’t think I reapplied it at all once I got home from the beach and I was out at the pool regularly for another hour with no shade. So it seems to be pretty darn good! Some people say they don’t like the smell, but I specifically bought it because I love love love the coconut smell. My daughter says it smells like bananas but I don’t like the smell of bananas and I don’t think it smells like that.
It does definitely leave a white sheen. Hence my need for make up.

Great for Hawaii!
Style: SPF 50, Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I spent hours trying to find a sunscreen that was “reef safe” since I was going to be spending a lot of time near corals and this was the best one I found. It doesn’t have any of the 3 ‘O’ ingredients that are known to damage reefs. And the zinc is non nano as well.
Sunscreen goes on easily. One of the better mineral sunscreens I’ve tried, this one actually smooths out like lotion and feels hydrating. Only leaves a slight pinkish hue, but that is inevitable with mineral sunscreens (that’s literally how they work in reflecting the sun). I could feel it on even in the ocean so I get protected, but still reapplied almost every 2 hours. No burns!
I didn’t use it on my face but my partner did and it never stung his eyes nor caused any breakouts!

Stick format is thick and difficult to rub in moderate climates
Style: SPF 50, Size: 1 count (Pack of 1)
I wanted to like it because the small stick format seemed very convenient to keep in my bag for emergency sunscreen reapplication with no chance of leaks.
But I think I have learned my lesson about stick sunscreen - in order to hold together in a stick, it has to have a thick and chalky consistency. Which makes it hard to apply and hard to rub in. It's so thick that if I rub the stick over my entire face it feels like I'm applying way too much with a super heavy white cast, and if I dab here and there and try to spread it around, it's so thick it doesn't feel like it spreads into good coverage. The scent is fine.
Update: I have found a specific use case for this - in extreme UV conditions like the equatorial tropics in midsummer, it's a good base layer under a more liquid mineral sunscreen, to add extra protection to the most exposed skin, like tops of shoulders, chest, nose and top of forehead. The thickness makes it protect better. It also softens a little and rubs in better in hot temps.

Needs to be warmed, but works great for quick face re-application
Style: SPF 50, Size: 1 count (Pack of 1)
I love mineral sunscreen, it really works the best. But I also do not love mineral sunscreen because it's hard to apply. I don't think it matters what you do, they're just always difficult to apply and always leaving the white. This one isn't much different.
I'm a scuba diver and my face sunscreen is washed off quickly doing multiple dives. I also get a weird "mask sunburn" if I don't reapply... but since I'm a diver I can't bring myself to buy or wear sunscreen that's not reef safe into the ocean. I was unsure if this would work because it's pretty solid. I threw it in my bag and once the sun warmed it up a little, I was able to apply it fairly easily between dives. I don't think it works unless it's warmed a bit first, but I like it for this purpose.

Good sunscreen
Style: SPF 50, Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
It works and it's vegan what's more to say. I repurchase this often.
